> When I was on Nardil I bought some salt supplements called Thermotabs. It's sodium chloride and one pill is equal to 180 mgs. I also have sea salt where 1/4 teaspoon is equal to 1.5 grams. Guess I should go with the sea salt. I never really noticed a difference when I took the pills. Did you increase your salt and did that help?

> brookeYes, sea salt would be better. Make sure you actually calculate the SODIUM content as 'salt' can mean anything in the product, even the anti-caking agent. And make sure its NOT balanced with potassium or it wont work.
I really would buy a blood pressure monitor first if I were you (a wrist monitor). A set of digital scales weighing in 0.01g divisions would also be a good idea so you can know EXACTLY how much sodium you are taking. Both can be purchased cheaply off ebay. Just check the seller's feedback score before purchase (I always make sure its 99%+).
